Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
placing of gene eng2+ under the control of a repressible promoter Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information a point mutation, that destroys the catalytic activity of the protein, results in a phenotype similar to that of the mutant strain with gene eng2 placed under the control of a repressible promoter. Exogenous addition of purified Eng2 releases the ascospores from asci generated by the eng2+-deficient mutant Schizosaccharomyces pombe

Localization

Localization Comment Organism GeneOntology No. Textmining
cytosol Eng2 lacks a signal peptide for entry into the secretory pathway and therefore localizes intracellularly to the cytosol of the diploid cell Schizosaccharomyces pombe 5829

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function When Schizosaccharomyces pombe diploid cells undergo meiosis, they differentiate into asci containing four haploid ascospores that are highly resistant to environmental stress. beta-Glucanase Eng2 and endo-alpha-1,3-glucanase Agn2 are required for ascus wall endolysis after sporulation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe Schizosaccharomyces pombe
